WitP: McBriar, Veikune, Pisa, Ingram, Bess, RGM

Some good news for Mat McBriar, who suffered a broken right foot last year.
Actually saw Mat McBriar punting again, so that's progress from where the club left off last year
Steve Doerschuk of CantonRep.com has a few quotes from David Veikune about adjusting to the linebacker position.
It’s asking a lot for Veikune to soar as a rookie in that he is converting from 4-3 college end to 3-4 pro linebacker. He is being tried inside and outside.

“At Hawaii,” Veikune said, “we dropped a lot in zone coverages, and I played a little bit of linebacker in high school, but it’s a new position for me.”

He vowed to “work extra hard” to “get natural.”
Pisa Tinoisamoa will not visit the Eagles after all.
Free-agent linebacker Pisa Tinoisamoa is not scheduled to visit the Eagles next week, according to team sources, despite an ESPN.com report indicating a visit has been arranged.
Andy Hart of Patriots Football Weekly thinks Jake Ingram will have a hard time making the team.
Early word on the long snappers. Nate Hodel was throwing accurate fast balls. Jake Ingram also had good juice, but had a few that were a bit off target. Hodel looked like the veteran. And Ingram is in for a shock if he makes it to training camp as my guess is his long, blonde, flowing hair won’t make it through July and August uncut.
Jake Ingram has flowing blonde hair?

Armando Salguero of The Miami Herald doesn't think much of Davone Bess.
I would say Bess, for all his gritty attributes and quickness, would not be able to start on 25 of 32 teams. He'd be a great slot guy, he'd be a wonderful answer in an emergency. He's growing and getting better. But a threat? A guy other teams worry about? He is not that. Fact is, he's going to be fighting for his life to make the team just like everyone else.
And finally, Ryan Grice-Mullen is not currently signed with a team, but check out this catch and run for a TD during a BC Lions game last year.
